Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 88, 1968 RUTGERS UNIVERSITY The State University of New Jersey IN MEMORY OF CHARLES MUNCH September 26, 1891 - November 6, 1968 ^Boston Symphony Orchestra Erich Leinsdorf Music Director THE RUTGERS UNIVERSITY CHOIR F. Austin Walter, Director Erich Leinsdorf, Conducting Soloists: SHERRILL MILNES SARAMAE ENDICH Baritone Soprano Program Notes Copyright © by Alec Robertson The University Gymnasium Thursday Evening, November 21, 1968 8:30 o'clock I "Wedding" Cantata No. 202 for Soprano J. S. Bach (1685-1750) Aria: Weichet nur, betriibte Schatten Recitative: Die Welt wird wieder neu Aria: Phobus eilt mit schnellen Pferden Recitative: D'rum sucht auch Amor sein Vergnugen Aria: Wenn die Friihlings liifte streichen Recitative: Und dieses ist das Gliicke Aria: Sich iiben im Lieben Recitative: So sei das Band der keuschen Liebe Gavotte: Sehet in Zufriedenheit Saramae Endich, soprano Joseph Silverstein, violin Ralph Gomberg, oboe Charles Wilson, harpsichord continuo Jules Eskin, 'cello continuo Henry Portnoi, double bass continuo Sherman Walt, bassoon continuo Program Note: During his period of office as court composer at Cothen, where he had no duties to perform in the Duke's chapel, Bach is said to have composed a large number of secular cantatas, but only one of these, our cantata No. 202, is preserved complete, two more being known to us from subsequent adaptations in the church cantatas. We have, therefore, the Wedding cantata composed at Cothen in its original version. Bach was often unwilling to leave good material composed for a special occasion aside, but the dance-like character of the cantata would have prevented him from using the music subsequently in a church work. It should be said here, however, that Bach, in the manner of this time, did not recognize any sharply de- fined difference between sacred and secular music. It is possible, or even probable, that Bach's wife, Anna Magdalena, sang the solo soprano part in this Wedding cantata. We do not know what couple the libretto was written for or its author. The charming text indicates that they were young and its poetic conceits evidently appealed to Bach. The work is scored for oboe, bassoon, strings and harpsichord and, as "table music," it would have been per- formed during the Gargantuan feast, common at these ceremonies. — INTERMISSION — II Ein deutsches Requiem, Op. 45 Brahms (1833-1897) Chorus: Selig sind, die da Leid tragen Chorus: Denn alles Fleisch es ist wie Gras Baritone and chorus: Herr, lehre doch mich, dass ein Ende Chorus: Wie lieblich sind deine Wohnungen Soprano and chorus: Ihr habt nun Traurigkeit Baritone and chorus: Denn wir haben hie keine bleibende Statt Chorus: Selig sind die Toten Saramae Endich, soprano Sherrill Milnes, baritone The Rutgers University Choir BOSTON SYMPHONY| ORCHESTRA ERICH LEIIySDORF, Mulic Director NOVEMBER 1968 JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH 'Wedding' cantata no. 202 for soprano 'Wei diet nur, betrubte Schatten' (Vanish, gloomy shadows) ARIA Weichet nur, betrubte Schatten, Vanish, gloomy shadows; Frost und Winde, geht zur Ruh'!

James 5:7 CHARLES MUNCH September 26 1891 - November 6 1968 Charles Munch, Music Director of the Boston Symphony Orches- tra from 1949 to 1962, died peacefully in his sleep in the early morning of November 6 1968 at Richmond, Virginia. He had conducted the Orchestre de Paris, of which he was conduc- tor and music director, in a con- cert at Raleigh, North Carolina, two days earlier. Born in Strasbourg, he came from a distinguished musical family. His father was his first violin teacher and with his three brothers and two sisters he spent much time during his childhood making music. He contemplated a medical career, and went at the age of twenty-one to study in Paris. But he was soon devoting his time to the violin. After service in the first world war, he resumed his career as a student of Carl Flesch in Berlin and as concertmaster of the Strasbourg Orchestra. He moved to Leipzig, where he spent eight years in the first desk of the violins in the Gewandhaus Orchestra under Wilhelm Furtwangler and Bruno Walter. In 1932 Charles Munch settled in Paris, and began his conducting career. He founded the Orchestre Symphonique de Paris and conducted the Lamoureux Concerts. Engagements as guest conductor in other cities soon followed. In 1937 he became conductor of the Paris Con- servatory Orchestra. His first visit to the United States was in 1946; he conducted the Boston Symphony on December 27 and in the fol- lowing month made the first of his many appearances with the New York Philharmonic. In the spring of 1948 Charles Munch was engaged to succeed Serge Koussevitzky as Music Director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, his tenure to begin with the 1949-50 season. Meanwhile, in the autumn of 1948, he toured throughout the United States with the Orchestre National de la Radiodiffusion Franchise, of which he was conductor. : Ich will euch trosten, As one whom his mother comforteth, wie einen seine Mutter trostet. so will I comfort you.

Elle utilise la translittération d’un ancien dialecte de Xi’an, ma ville natale, extrêmement puissant et musical qui, dans le parlé/chanté, se déploie en intervalles démesurés et en glissandi. J’avais été particulièrement fascinée par une voix que j’entendis chez un conteur qui chantait dans ce dialecte : c’était la voix sèche, comme affolée et pourtant très séduisante d’un vieil eunuque.

  • Press Release – London, 9 October 2019 Orchestre De Chambre
    Press release – London, 9 October 2019 Orchestre de chambre de Paris : Lars Vogt, new Music Director Lars Vogt has been appointed Music Director of the Orchestre de chambre de Paris from 1 July 2020, for a 3-year term in agreement with the City of Paris and the ministry of Culture - Drac Ile-de-France. With Lars Vogt, the Orchestre de chambre de Paris has appointed a Music Director who is both an outstanding musician and an internationally acclaimed conductor. His presence further strengthens the orchestra’s original artistic approach and its roots in chamber music. This appointment is the result of a process that was begun more than a year ago by the Board of Directors of the Orchestre de chambre de Paris in constant dialogue with all their musicians. These positive exchanges led to a short list of four candidates including one female conductor on which all the musicians had an advisory vote. This rigorous procedure allowed the Board of Directors, meeting on 8 October 2019, to appoint Lars Vogt as the next Music Director of the Orchestre de chambre de Paris with the approval of the City of Paris and the ministry of Culture – Drac Ile-de-France. The appointment of Lars Vogt marks a new stage in the musical development begun by Douglas Boyd in 2015. Over the last five years, the Orchestre de chambre de Paris has seen a significant regeneration with 44% new players joining in this time. Today recognised as the most youthful orchestra in Paris, it is also the first professional French orchestra to have full gender equality.
